InstaWrimo Is NaNoWriMo That Uses Pictures Instead of Words

Every November, NaNoWriMo invites writers and prospective writers to create a novel for a month. This is an assignment that I have tried at least half a dozen times and completed once. Despite my limited success, I always try again next year because, to be honest, it’s a pretty fun exercise, even if I can’t always finish it.

This March NaNoWriMo is hosting a different type of competition. Instead of using words to come across it, you use pictures.

Called #InstaWrimo , this is a month-long challenge that asks you to post an image of something new every day. The goal of the exercise is to “get you thinking about your writing habits and tools in your creative backpack.”

There are no hard and fast rules here, so you can take the clue literally or use it to think outside the box and place something next to the clue.
